It’s an A&O so expect it to be like one. Overall, it’s not bad. I didn’t use the kitchen. Had an issue with my room as my bed was taken by someone else so the staff said to just take another bed. Vibes were a bit off, but it’s a huge hostel and so many people stay there. The staff were a little rude as well when I checked in and asked about extending and the bathroom in the room smelt a bit and was a bit dirty. I also found half a biscuit down the back of my bed too. But again, it’s an A&O.

Overall the hostel was very clean. However, I was unable to lock my things in the provided storage because it was too big for the standard lock I brought with me and when I inquired at the front desk they did not offer or even sell suitable locks. I ended up leaving my things with my friends who had a private room. Because of this, there was little or no indication that my bed was occupied - so two out of my four night stay I came back at night to find someone in my bed and had to change.
